Fine, but whenever you altruistically send a request to a node (A) where another node (B) would have given you a faster success, you also prevent another node (C) from sending a request to its best candidate, A. So, wouldn't your so-called altruism would actually hurt the network? For shame!

I freely admit you are more likely to be right than me! However, implicit in my proposal is that everyone would be sending a *lot* fewer requests, because they would only be sending them to nodes empirically unlikely to QR (for certain, not yet defined, values of unlikely).
